Does anyone have experience interfacing a hard disk to the mac? I saw a Shugart 5 Mbyte hard disk --ST506 compatible for the incredible price of $159 in priority 1 electronics mailer. I know it sounds too good to be true but I have no experience with this drive. Does the Mac have an internal controller board for the external drive or would I have to design that myself? Can anyone tell me the interface spec.? If this works and I do buy it I'll post to the net but don't expect me to do it right away.
